What is BS970 080M40?

EN8/080M40 steel,as ’40’ carbon steel, is a common unalloyed medium carbon steel as per British standard BS 970.It has medium carbon content with 0.36-0.44% which gives it medium tensile strength.

What is en in EN8 steel?

EN8 is an unalloyed medium carbon steel which is used in applications where better properties than mild steel are required but where the costs do not justify the purchase of a steel alloy. EN8 can be heat treated to provide a good surface hardness and moderate wear resistance by flame or induction hardening processes.

What is EN8 material equivalent?

What is 080M40 steel?

080M40 grade steel is a medium carbon steel offering moderate tensile strengths. The material is capable of through hardening by quenching and tempering on limited sections, but is more commonly supplied in the untreated or normalised condition.

What material is BS970?

BS970 steel grades are commonly carbon and alloy steels which can be heat treated to achieve a wide range of tensile strengths and mechanical properties. Some stainless steel specifications are also referenced in BS970.

Is 080M40 a EN8?

EN8 engineering steel, also know as 080M40, is an unalloyed medium carbon steel. EN8 is a medium strength steel with good tensile strength. It is suitable for shafts, stressed pins, studs, keys etc.

Is EN8 equivalent to C45?

C45 round bar steel is equivalent to EN8 or 080M40. Steel C45 bar or plate is suitable for the manufacture of parts such as gears, bolts, general-purpose axles and shafts, keys and studs. Hexagon Steel.
